The film featured Chaney in the lead role as the masked and facially deformed Phantom who haunts the Paris Opera House, causing murder and mayhem in an attempt to force the management to make the woman he loves a star.

It is most famous for Chaney’s intentionally horrific, self-applied make-up, which was kept a studio secret until the film’s premiere.

The unveiling of his mask is one of the most famous moments in movie history.
